  • Don't feel bad, it's not like it's your fault. Just keep it in mind for the next instance you join, if they seem to be struggling or call for help.

  • I think they just mean that it's heavily moderated and principled. Which is fine and kind of the point.

  • A lot of those people would be correct :)

  • I think you're retroactively reinterpreting your vague phrasing, but whatever dude. I don't think that particular post has anything to do with it.

  • That's four months ago. Unfortunate that they didn't call for more urgent help after that. But I suppose it's too late now.

  • Because a couple weeks ago, the lemm.ee crew made a post asking for donations

    They didn't, that was a post asking to donate to lemmy, the software.

    You cannot possibly convice me that didn’t somehow influence this decision to shutdown the instance.

    I can because it's completely irrelevant, and what stopped this instance seems to have nothing to do with the development, but rather to do with the amount of volunteers and their work load.

  • No, that post is a request from the lemm.ee admins to donate to Lemmy, the software. Not to donate to lemm.ee. You're talking about the same post.

  • It's possible that lemm.ee grew too fast for its own good. Also possible that it lacked an "identity" as it was very general purpose. Certain instances attract users that behave better. Perhaps lemm.ee did not (no shade on anyone, just speculating).

  • I don't think it has to be like that. We can discuss things while still being positive. Ideally discussions aren't about disagreements only, but understanding, seeing things from other's perspective, finding middle grounds and so on.

  • I would hope that the users would not go immediately to lemmy.world, but rather other instances. But you may be right unfortunately

  • Sad to hear of your problems, but thank you for the time you did put into it! Nothing lasts forever but that doesn't mean it wasn't worthwhile.

  • Yes, actually.

    Link? Just out of curiosity.

  • ... They are literally saying they don't have admins/mods enough. You want to strain your mods? Allowing comments on that sort of post is how you do that.

  • It may also be relevant to note that content from lemm.ee will not be deleteable once they go offline. If you are a user on lemm.ee and there is any content at all that you may at some point in the future want to delete, now is the time.

  • I guess this is a nice test of the migration feature for a lot of users :)

  • Well that's sudden and unexpected. Was there any calls for admins? I'm sort of surprised that lemm.ee couldn't find enough volunteers with their sizable user base.

  • What does forking have to do with this instance shutdown? They were lacking admins for running the instance, not developers.

  • Yea, I'm really surprised as well. Was there any build up to this? Any calls for help?

  • Depends on what communities and instances you frequent I would say. You can find nicely moderated places if you care to look for them.

  • How is this bullying not moderated? That just seems weird. I've always felt Mastodon kinda fails at moderation in this aspect. He should go to Lemmy instead.
